ELECTRICITY IN SAVING FLOUR

A Practical Test Proves Very salts.

II to succeed beyond the expectations OF
the most sanguine Is an indication Of perfect
success, then the working test Of DR.. RAGS
application Of electricity in amalgamation
for the purpose Of saving Toured quicksilver,
as practiced on the Carson river, is worthy
to be elassed as the beginning Of a new era
! in the reduction Of silver ores and working
Of low grade ores and ta,lings. In pursuance
OF certain labratory experiments before men
toned in this paper, The DR.. brought from
San Francisco dynamo Of sixty Ampere
force for the sole purpose Of making a
working test Of his idea on practical basis.
At one o'clock last Thursday, everything
being in readiness, the wires were connected
with settler in the Douglass mill at this
place, eigh feet in diameter and four feet
deep, filled with pulp and water, and the
machine put in motion, sample
having first been taken from the set.
tier and like sample from another settler,
charged at the same time with the same ma.
terial. After running one hour both settlers
were again sampled and it was found that
while the one that was not connected with
the electric machine showed no preceptible
diminition Of Toured quicksilver, the one so
connected showed decrease Of about fifty
per cent. Upon taking samples again at the
end Of two hours run the disconnected set.
tier showed decrease Of ten to fifteen per
cent. Of Toured quicksilver, while from that
which was being operated upon by the cleo.
,ricity, the quicksilver had almost wholly
disappeared. Altogether the test has proved
great success. The fact is clearly demon.
Of quicksilver in amalgamating silver ore,
and tailings may, by DIR. Rae's process, be
reduced ct least seventy per cent. This saw.
ing will, also. be accomplished at almost
no expense, as all that is required will be
sufficient power to run the dynamo, and
there are few, If any, mills on the Carson
river that cannot spare that much power and
not feel it. And not only may the mill men
save their quicksilver and amalgam, but il
will tie possible for them to light their mill,
at night with much better light than car
now be had, at the only expense Of putting
in the proper appliances. To summarize
the whole matter. the saving Of this vasl
amount OF quicksilver and amalgam, and
the lighting Of mills may be accomplished
at the original cost Of the plant, and when
The great number OF tons Of material work.
ed is considered. the expense per ton will
be practically nothing-not to exceed two
cents per ton. When all the mills on the
river are running full it is estimated that
about 6o,oo pounds Of quicksilver are lost
every month. After the clean up OF two
tons yesterday the shines exhibited little il
any Toured quicksilver. This invention
will be doubly valuable to DR.. Rae as i,
will greatly increase the value of his vacuum
dredge enterprise on the Carson river.

The Salt Mountain of Palestine.

Palestine possesses n remarkable salt
mountain situated nc the south end of
the Dead sea. The length OF the ridge is
six miles, with an average width of three
quarters Of mile, and the height is not
far from 600 feet. There are places where
the everything earthly deposits are many
feet in thickness, but the mass OF the
mountain is composed of solid rock salt.
some of which is as clear as crystal How
far this deposit of salt extends below the
surface of the ground, no one at present
knows. At some points, this ridge,
which is on the shore of the Dead sea, APP
proachcs very close TO the water, and Mt
others it recedes until it is fifty or more
yards from It. just here the water Of
the Dead sea is much more salt than IL IS
Mt the north end, where the Jordan
enters the lake.
ms salt IS u government MONOPOLY
The same is true of the salt that Is con
tanned I'm solution in the Dead sea itself.
If Arabs or the natives OF the country
were found getting salt from the shores
of the Dead sea or from this salt noun
tain, they would be arrested ut once.
Most OF the salt used in Hebron, Jerusa-
lem, and elsewhere in this part of Pales-
time, comes from these sources, but it is
gathered under the direction OF govern.
ment officers, and the revenue is sup
posed to go TO the government.-Uni
